Atishi, the minister of law for Delhi, stated on Tuesday that the administration, led by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, is dedicated to upholding the court’s needs and keeping its word about justice. The Delhi government’s budgeted allocation for the courts has increased more than four times in the previous ten years, the speaker said during a foundation stone laying ceremony for three court complexes at Karkardooma, Shastri Park, and Rohini Sector-26. According to Atishi, it was Rs 760 crore in 2014–15 and has risen gradually over the past few years, more than quadrupling to approximately Rs 3,000 crore in 2024–25. At a ceremony held at the Indian Chief Justice’s office, DY Chandrachud laid the cornerstone for the court complexes’ construction. According to Atishi, the new courthouses will symbolize both the hope for justice and faith in the Constitution. She said that the project’s total value is Rs. 1,100 crore. The minister claimed that the Delhi government had increased the amount of judicial infrastructure, citing the opening of 60 courtroom complexes at Rouse Avenue in 2019, the addition of 144 courtrooms to the courts in Saket, Tis Hazari, and Karkardooma, as well as the building of a new building at the Delhi High Court. The three court complexes, according to Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena, will be environmentally friendly structures with solar energy and rainwater collection systems. He declared that fortifying the legal system in the nation’s capital was essential.
